"Emanuel and his crew built a retainer wall to stop my yard from sliding into my neighbor's. He took my design and worked with me to create a dramatic and detailed wall in my front yard. Built with rebar, concrete, and glue this wall is not going anywhere. Most impressed by how he was open to design changes and trying to get the wall best it could be, and also able to remember those changes from day to day. It was a pleasure to work with him."

"Our pool was almost finished at our new build house so we needed to find a landscaper. We looked online for recommendations and we went to a home show to talk directly to multiple companies. We selected 4 different companies to give us bids. We decided to go with Kendall and Citiscapes after a long talk with him. He answered all of our questions and took the time to explain everything. You can definitely see the military background in him. He was not the cheapest bid but there was just something about him that made us confident that we would end up with the backyard of our dreams! We are so thrilled with the outcome of our landscaping! Citiscapes did such an outstanding job from start to finish. From our design plans, to picking out plants, pavers and the color of our rock - they listened and gave sound advice of what works best for our location and Arizona in general! Communication was excellent and they allowed some design changes in the middle of the job.Top notch company through out! Polly Mann"

"Jose and his team did a great job trimming our shrubs and cleaning up our yard. We hired them yesterday to do a monthly service and they came today. I appreciate Joseâ s sense of urgency to come the day after we agreed that he would do our yard monthly going forward. Our yard looks great and we had many over grown shrubs that they had to trim back. We look forward to doing business with Ever Green Landscaping.. Exceptional job today."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Carefree, AZ

Start by defining your goals and budget. Collect photos of rooms you love, jot down must-have features, and list what isn’t working in your current space. Share these details—and your target budget—during the first meeting. The clearer you are, the quicker a designer can translate your vision into a workable plan and keep costs in check.

Yes, working with an interior designer can help you save money. Designers prevent costly missteps, secure trade discounts on furniture and finishes, and coordinate the project so you don’t pay twice for the same work. Their upfront fee often pays for itself in avoided change orders, tighter timelines, and materials purchased at below-retail pricing.

A full interior design project wraps up in two to three months, on average, while a decorating job takes four to eight weeks. Timelines stretch if you add structural changes, custom millwork, or specialty materials, and unexpected shipping or permit delays can tack on extra days. Talk with your designer about project milestones and build in a little wiggle room.

Interview at least three pros whose portfolios match your style. Review their credentials and ask for references. During a face-to-face or virtual meeting, discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, and make sure their communication style and fee structure feel comfortable. The right designer combines technical know-how with a creative approach that clicks with you.
